Abstract: The proposition of Modern Chinese Civilization emerges as a culmination of over 5,000 years of nurturing by China's fine traditional culture, learning from both the successes and failures of The former Soviet Union's socialist construction, drawing on the experience of capitalist nations in developing modern civilization, and evolving through the transformative practice of Chinese-style modernization.This multidimensional genesis endows Chinese modern civilization with rich and layered connotations.It is simultaneously rooted in the indigenous soil of China and oriented toward socio-economic flourishing; it embodies the pursuit of common prosperity as well as the advancement of national unity and progress.Yet, the construction of such a civilization remains a long-term and complex endeavor.It calls for the extraction of cultural nutrients across both diachronic and synchronic dimensions; the co-constitution of an autonomous knowledge system through theory-practice interplay; the deepening of civilizational foundations through international cultural exchange; and the strengthening of cultural identity through the mutual embeddedness and integration of Han and ethnic minority traditions.Only through these coordinated efforts across multiple dimensions can cultural prosperity be sustained, civilizational revitalization be realized, and meaningful contributions be made to building China into a culturally powerful nation.
